Phases and Key Issues in Acquisition Due Diligence PPT
This PPT slide, part of the 28-slide Toolkit for Commercial Due Diligence PowerPoint presentation, outlines the critical role of due diligence in the acquisition process for companies focused on growth through acquisitions. It is structured into phases, each representing a key step in the acquisition journey, starting from Growth Strategy Development and culminating in Merger Integration.
In the first phase, Growth Strategy Development, organizations must clarify their goals and targets. This includes deciding whether to concentrate on core business areas or diversify, and whether to pursue domestic or international opportunities. The considerations of acquisition, alliance, or joint venture also come into play here.
The second phase, Screening Candidates, emphasizes the importance of assessing the compatibility of potential targets. Key issues include understanding the strategic risks associated with the acquisition and determining the value of the target, alongside considerations for premium recovery.
Valuation follows, where the focus shifts to evaluating whether the acquisition is worth pursuing. This involves weighing the value to both the buyer and the seller, as well as ensuring that the acquisition aligns with the strategic vision of the company.
Negotiation is the next phase, where understanding the seller’s motivations becomes crucial. The slide prompts teams to reflect on their collaboration and consistency during this stage.
Closing/Taking Control addresses the immediate actions post-acquisition, emphasizing the need for swift control and alignment with strategic objectives.
Finally, the Merger Integration phase focuses on extracting the full value of the deal, highlighting the importance of effective integration strategies. Overall, the slide serves as a comprehensive guide for executives navigating the complexities of acquisitions.
